[QUOTE="dale.baker, post: 16503283, member: 113067"] I agree with these comments. I have 806 RWHP from my JDM built motor and it is impossible to hook up with 20" drag radials. Now, let's put some 15" Sticky Mickeys on this car and now we have something that will hook up on the track. But our current 8.8" rear end won't handle the additional torque! No tire is going to hook up on the street with 800RWHP let alone 1000-1200RWHP. Thus the comment here is correct. Bragging at the local car show you have 1200HP is all well and good but when it comes to hooking up this is where the fun factor sets in with these cars. Remember Demonology's quote "Spinning Aint Winning. Good luck with your build process. [/QUOTE]
